386 Evil Abyss
“Does Qingqing know about all of this?” Huo Qi asked.
Did Qingqing want to forget those things? When she remembered them again, was it even more painful? Was that why she chose to ask her master for help and sealed those memories again, pretending that those things had never happened?
All these questions were in Huo Qi’s mind as his heart ached.
Yuan Yi sighed softly. This was the umpteenth time he had sighed tonight. “She knows! But I was the one who took the initiative to seal those memories for her. I don’t want to see a girl who has just learned to accept the beauty of this world being dragged back into the abyss by those beasts and purgatory-like memories again! Qingqing should have a better and brighter life!”
He looked at Huo Qi and continued, “Sometimes, people aren’t really omnipotent. What we can accept is very limited. Since we can use some means to make our lives less painful, and we can just forget about those memories, then why not? I guess you and I have the same opinion on Qingqing, right?”
Huo Qi felt his body freeze. He raised his hand to stroke the sad expression on his face and nodded. “I understand what you mean, Master. If I had made the decision for Qingqing back then, I think I would have been like you.”
Yuan Yi took a deep look at this responsible and calm man and smiled lightly. “Huo Qi, I really didn’t misjudge you. You’re indeed worthy of Qingqing!”
Huo Qi didn’t say those righteous words. He really stood on Qingqing’s feelings and thought about this matter.
They had the ability and mentality to bear the burden for Su Qing. Their love for Su Qing was meticulous and wholehearted!
“It wasn’t in vain that I was honest with you tonight. Other than the three brothers of the Yuan family, you’re the fourth person who knows so much about Qingqing! I hope you will cherish Qingqing well and don’t disappoint me.” As Yuan Yi spoke, he reached out and patted Huo Qi’s shoulder heavily.
He really trusted Huo Qi completely.
Huo Qi looked at Yuan Yi with sincerity and honesty. “I understand, Master. I won’t disappoint you. Qingqing is the woman I love the most in my life. I swear to you that I will use my life to protect the rest of her life.”
When Yuan Yi heard this, he laughed loudly. Drunkenness slowly surged into his heart. He smiled and said, “That’s for the best! It’s getting late. I’m drunk too. Hurry up and go back to sleep!”
Huo Qi looked at Yuan Yi’s gentle and smiling face and nodded. “Alright, Master, rest! I’ll leave first.”
This conversation between Yuan Yi and Huo Qi made Huo Qi understand his deep love for Su Qing even more! He understood a more complete and realistic Su Qing. At the same time, he was also determined to spend the rest of his life with Su Qing.
Su Qing had lived such a difficult and painful first half of her life. In the future, it should be a smooth journey and happiness.
It was almost two in the morning. Huo Qi, who smelled faintly of tobacco, sat gently by Su Qing’s bed. He looked at this innocent and cute girl and couldn’t imagine that she had suffered so much in the past.
The girl’s sleeping face looked so innocent. Huo Qi’s eyes were filled with pity and love. He bent down and kissed Su Qing’s forehead dotingly.
He loved Su Qing deeply!
Su Qing seemed to have sensed something and opened her eyes slightly. After seeing this familiar figure clearly, she tilted her head to avoid the man’s face and muttered, “Sleep. Stop fooling around.”
Huo Qi couldn’t help but laugh. He reached out and gently touched the girl’s ear. He said softly, “Alright, sleep! I’ll sleep with you, okay? If you don’t respond, I’ll take it that you agree!”
What answered him was the girl’s even and long breathing.
Huo Qi took off his coat and lay down on his side. He gently locked Su Qing back into his arms, as if he was hugging his entire world!
